Questions
What is a phrasal verb?
A phrasal verb is a verb and a small word such as up, out or off. Together they often have a new meaning. Give up means stop trying. Turn down an offer means refuse it.
Why are phrasal verbs so hard to learn?
The small word often looks random. Sink In groups verbs by what the particle does. For example, up can show an increase: prices go up, you speed up. When you see the pattern, new verbs are easier to guess and remember.

Which English level is Sink In for?
